My Life with the Walter Boys

Where's her inheritance?

Seems if I appointed someone a guardian, I would also leave money for her upkeep, especially if I were wealthy, and aware that the family are farmers.

The uncle has it, and is keeping it as leverage?

Is he the land developer trying to purchase their land?

Is he a good guy or a bad guy?

This really annoys and frustrates me, although I love the Walter parents a lot.

Not really sure that this deserves a second season.

Since I'm only on episode 9, maybe it's all addressed in ep 10?

Guess I should finish it all and come back to leave an additional review based on the whole of it.

So, i watch quite a lot of shows and mostly crime thrillers so dramas like this don't usually appeal to me. However I enjoyed this i loved the concept of a big family, the farm nice sceneries, the brothers and the sisters. This is so much better than the summer i turned pretty and honestly deserves a watch. Team Cole all the way. Love the dynamics of all the characters and chemistry between them too. I also like the adult relationships and there characters as well. Looking forward to S2 hopefully it is a bit more spicy and hope they don't take ages releasing it or are too slow with carrying on some story lines.

After reading the book, I was waiting to see the series. Nikki Rodriguez as Jackie is probably an okay choice, but not with Noah. He is supposed to be 17/18, not 25. He looks way too old to be in high school and Nikki looks 16, I don't think they have chemistry at all. She doesn't have any sparks with Alex either.

Will is supposed to be I think 21. Here he looks like 30, and his fiance looks old to be 21 too.

Okay, after finishing the whole thing, most of the actors were a miscast, they just don't go well with each other. I kept thinking "was she a diversity cast, was he a diversity cast?" Actors make or break a story and it feels like with different people this series would/could have been more enjoyable and believable.

I refuse to apologise for the fact that I finished this show within less than a week. Yes, the acting is average but who actually cares? Does no one want to watch mindless teen dramas anymore? Since when did we all start analysing TV shows that were clearly not made to showcase elite acting and plots as if they all have to be emmy nominated performances? Who ACTUALLY cares. If its watchable I'm going to be invested!!!!

I enjoyed it to keep it simple. It was addictive, easy to binge and I was invested. Just a shame that annoying alex kept coming back. I hope they play out the Jackie and Cole plot more in S3 instead of starving me.

One note- please someone stop Alex from smiling. It was incredibly disturbing.

So a young teen girl with serious family trauma is placed with a family of boys. 2 of them start immediately making goo goo eyes at her. If my sons behaved with women and girls like either Alex and Cole do, they would get a massive talking to. The girl is in the care of two adults, who should be putting the brakes on their sons and having a word to Jackie too. The talk should be going along the lines of 'Don't poop in the nest'. And respect women. Firstly you have Alex, a squinty looking character with a slightly mean smile that doesn't reach his eyes. Giving off massive, passive aggressive incel "I'm not talking to you" sulky vibes, for the most part. Shudder- scary red flag that one. Then you have Cole who is a dishy looking man, who is a 'player', but seems more relatable and safe as a person with his career ups and downs. At least what you see is what you get- a player is a player. Problem is , he looks 28 years old and it is positively creepy he is chasing after Jackie. If you can look past those two extremely weird male characters, and poor parenting, then what you might find yourself enjoying is a mindless fluff piece that is entertaining enough.
